Thank you to all those who sent in submissions for the 2013 EDAC Marketing Canada Awards. It was another great year – especially for our always delighted adjudication committee and grateful recipients. The 2013 EDAC Cup went to the Economic Development Alliance of Southeast Alberta.

We continue to revamp and improve the program to meet the needs of our members and promote up and coming best practices!

Keep an eye out for our 2014 Marketing Awards Brochure expected to be released in May. It could be your community’s year to take home the Cup!
